"North of 60 BBS" is using FirstClass, a bozoid bulletin-board system (for Macintoshes only, I think) which can also connect to Usenet and Internet-based email services. It has a bug in it (which its implementers refuse to fix despite having been told about it years ago) which sporadically sends these garbage messages to everyone who posts to a Usenet newsgroup: or, it seems, an email digest. > Ah! Thanks! I wondered what a "North of 60 BBS" was. >This has gone well past the point of sending polite messages to sysadmins (not least because any attempt to email the sysadmin will just give you another "NDN" message back); mailbomb the bastards, > I'll use the Rollei as a gunsight camera and a Leica to photograph the debris!
